Sub-lethal stimulation of ferroptosis leads to trophoblast dysfunction

ABSTRACT: Ferroptosis is a recently identified program of regulated cell death, defined by excessive accumulation of hydroperoxy-arachidonoyl (C20:4)- or adrenoyl (C22:4)- phosphatidyl-ethanolamine (OOH-PE). The selenium-dependent glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) inhibits ferroptosis, converting unstable ferroptotic lipid hydroperoxides to non-toxic lipid alcohols. The effect of GPX4 ablation is divergent among cells and tissues, suggesting that additional regulators may guard trophoblasts against ferroptosis. While placental oxidative stress and lipotoxicity are hallmarks of placental dysfunction, the possible role of ferroptosis in placental function has not been hitherto investigated. Here we found that placental dysfunction is associated with ferroptosis, and that inhibition of GPX4 causes trophoblast injury and ferroptosis in vitro and in vivo during mouse pregnancy. Importantly, we uncover a role for the phospholipase PLA2G6 (PNPLA9, iPLA2beta), known to metabolizes OOH-PE to lyso-PE and oxidized fatty acid, in mitigating ferroptosis induced by GPX4 inhibition in vitro or by hypoxia-reoxygenation injury in vivo. Together, we identified ferroptosis in the human and mouse placenta, and established a novel role for PLA2G6 in attenuating trophoblastic ferroptosis. Our data provide mechanistic insights to the ill-defined entity of placental lipotoxicity, and may inspire new therapeutic strategies that target PLA2G6 as a means to modulate ferroptosis in placental and non-placental tissue.

Ferroptotic cell death triggered by conjugated linolenic acids is mediated by ACSL1

Project description:Ferroptosis is associated with lipid hydroperoxides generated by oxidation of polyunsaturated acyl chains. Lipid hydroperoxides are reduced by glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and GPX4 inhibitors induce ferroptosis. However, the therapeutic potential of triggering ferroptosis in cancer cells with polyunsaturated fatty acids is unknown. We identified conjugated linoleates including α-eleostearic acid (αESA) as novel ferroptosis inducers. αESA did not alter GPX4 activity but was incorporated into cellular lipids and promoted lipid peroxidation and cell death in diverse cancer cell types. αESA-triggered death was mediated by acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain isoform 1, which promoted αESA incorporation into neutral lipids including triacylglycerols. Interfering with triacylglycerol biosynthesis suppressed ferroptosis triggered by αESA but not by GPX4 inhibition. Orally administered tung oil, naturally rich in αESA, limited tumor growth and metastasis with transcriptional changes consistent with ferroptosis. Overall, these findings illuminate a novel approach to ferroptosis, complementary to GPX4 inhibition, with therapeutic potential.

Integrating multi-omics analyses unveil protein features of gestational diabetes mellitus and preeclampsia

Project description:As one of the most common maternal comorbidities, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and preeclampsia (PE) are associated with maternal and infant health. Although the pathogenesis of PE and GDM remains controversial, oxidative stress is thought to be involved in the underlying pathology of GDM and PE. Protein lysine acetylation (Kac) plays an important regulatory role in biological processes. There is little data regarding the association of the maternal acetylome with GDM and PE. This study aimed to assess the multi-omics (proteome and acetylome) potential value in the underlying pathology for GDM and PE by label-free quantification proteomics technology. In our study, we included placental tissue from healthy individuals (n=6), GDM patients (n=6), and PE patients (n=6). We identified 22 overlapping DEPs (differentially expressed proteins) and 192 overlapping DAPs (differentially acetylated proteins) between the GDM and PE groups. Furthermore, 192 overlapping DAPs were mainly enriched in endoplasmic reticulum stress and ferroptosis pathways. Interestingly, endoplasmic reticulum stress, ferroptosis, and oxidative stress are believed to be related to each other. We also identified that acetylation of the HSP90AA1, HSPA8, PDIA3, GPX4, TF, and CP might serve as novel markers and better therapeutic targets in both complications. We thoroughly analyzed the key characteristics of proteome and acetylome in GDM and PE placental tissues, which may be useful for exploring the underlying pathology and discovering new biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

Darapladib, an inhibitor of Lp-PLA2, sensitises cancer cells to ferroptosis by remodelling lipid metabolism

Project description:Arachidonic and adrenic acids in the membrane play key roles in ferroptosis, but how these fatty acids are manipulated in cells is largely unknown. Here, we reveal that lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) controls intracellular phospholipid metabolism and contributes to ferroptosis resistance. A metabolic drug screen revealed that darapladib, an inhibitor of Lp-PLA2, synergistically induced ferroptosis in the presence of GPX4 inhibitors. Notably, darapladib was able to enhance ferroptosis under lipoprotein-deficient or serum-free conditions. Furthermore, Lp-PLA2 was located in the membrane and cytoplasm and suppressed ferroptosis, suggesting the critical role of intracellular Lp-PLA2. Lipidomic analysis showed that darapladib treatment or deletion of PLA2G7, which encodes Lp-PLA2, generally enriched phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) species and reduced lysophosphatidylethanolamine (lysoPE) species. Moreover, combination treatment with darapladib and PACMA31, a GPX4 inhibitor, efficiently inhibited tumour growth in a xenograft model. Our study suggests that inhibition of Lp-PLA2 is a potential therapeutic strategy to enhance ferroptosis in cancer treatment.

Autophagy of OTUD5 Destabilizes GPX4 to Confer Ferroptosis-Dependent Kidney Injury

Project description:Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent programmed cell death associated with severe kidney diseases, linked to decreased glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). However, the spatial distribution of renal GPX4-mediated ferroptosis and the molecular events causing GPX4 reduction during ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) remain largely unknown. Using spatial transcriptomics, we identify that GPX4 is situated at the interface of the inner cortex and outer medulla, a hyperactive ferroptosis site post-I/R injury. We show that OTU deubiquitinase 5 (OTUD5) is a GPX4-binding protein that confers ferroptosis resistance by stabilizing GPX4. During I/R, ferroptosis is induced by mTORC1-mediated autophagy, causing OTUD5 degradation and subsequent GPX4 decay. Functionally, OTUD5 deletion intensifies renal tubular cell ferroptosis and exacerbates acute kidney injury, while AAV-mediated OTUD5 delivery mitigates ferroptosis and promotes renal function recovery from I/R injury. In this work, our study highlights a new autophagy-dependent ferroptosis module: hypoxia/ischemia-induced OTUD5 autophagy triggers GPX4 degradation, offering a potential therapeutic avenue for I/R-related kidney diseases.

Exploring the phenomenon of ferroptosis in liver disease associated with intestinal failure in children with SBS

Project description:Background: Intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) is a common complication of long-term parenteral nutrition (PN) that is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Ferroptosis, as an iron-dependent regulated cell death, has been shown to play an important role in the development of several liver diseases. This study focuses on investigating whether the ferroptosis phenomenon is present in TPN-induced IFALD and further exploring the potential regulatory mechanisms. Methods: Ferroptosis hallmarkers were measured in children with short bowel syndrome (SBS) who had long-term PN use and caused IFALD. Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were used to establish a rat model of IFALD with a concomitant ferroptosis inhibition intervention using liproxstain-1. The mir-431 lineage was identified as a potential upstream regulatory mir-RNA by mir-RNA sequencing. HepG2 and 293T cell line was used to demonstrate that mir-431 regulates ferroptosis through the GPX4 pathway at the cellular level in vitro. Results: Ferroptosis is upregulated in liver of children with IFALD. Liproxstain-1 downregulates ferroptosis in a rat model of IFALD and attenuates hepatic steatosis through the lipid metabolism pathway. In vitro HepG2 and 293T cell experiments reveal that mir-431 affects ferroptosis by regulating GPX4 protein. Conclusions: Ferroptosis plays an important role in the development of IFALD. Liproxstain-1 inhibits ferroptosis and attenuates hepatic steatosis in a rat model of IFALD through the lipid metabolism pathway. Mir-431 negatively regulates GPX4 protein-induced ferroptosis.

Class IIa HDACs reprogram mitochondrial metabolism to inhibit apoptosis and ferroptosis in response to lipotoxicity

Project description:Lipotoxicity, the accumulation of lipids in non-adipose tissues, alters the metabolic transcriptome and mitochondrial metabolism in skeletal muscle. The mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. Here we show that lipotoxicity increased histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) and histone deacetylase 5 (HDAC5), which reduced the expression of metabolic genes and oxidative metabolism in skeletal muscle. This metabolic reprogramming was linked with reduced expression of p53-dependent genes that mediate apoptosis and ferroptosis, which preserved cell viability in response to lipotoxicity. Mechanistically, impaired mitochondrial metabolism reduced acetylation of p53 at K120, a modification required for transcriptional activation of apoptosis, while redox drivers of ferroptosis were also reduced. Overexpression of loss-of-function HDAC4 and HDAC5 mutants in skeletal muscle of obese db/db mice enhanced oxidative capacity, increased apoptosis and ferroptosis and reduced muscle mass. This study identifies HDAC4 and HDAC5 as repressors of the oxidative state of skeletal muscle, and that this metabolic reprogramming, considered deleterious for normal metabolism, is critical to preserve muscle integrity in response to lipotoxicity.
